The BodyChargeState object stores the propagating data of a body charge in a step. One instance of this object is created internally by the BodyCharge object for each step. The instance is also deleted internally by the BodyCharge object.
The BodyChargeState object has no constructor or methods.
The BodyChargeState object is derived from the LoadState object.
import load mdb.models[name].steps[name].loadStates[name]
The BodyChargeState object has the following members:
A Float specifying the load magnitude.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the load magnitude. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the amplitude member. Possible values are UNSET, SET, UNCHANGED, and FREED.
A SymbolicConstant specifying the propagation state of the LoadState object. Possible values are:
NOT_YET_ACTIVE
CREATED
PROPAGATED
MODIFIED
DEACTIVATED
NO_LONGER_ACTIVE
TYPE_NOT_APPLICABLE
INSTANCE_NOT_APPLICABLE
BUILT_INTO_BASE_STATE
A String specifying the name of the amplitude reference. The String is empty if the load has no amplitude reference.
